Overview

Back to Top ^

The Pro Boat® ShockWave® 55 SS is a professionally built, ready-to-run deep-V fiberglass model. Powered by the potent Zenoah™ G26M engine, the boat has a clutch, water pump, dual rudders and tuned pipe.



The new Shockwave 55 Super Sport RTR Deep-V Speedboat features scale detail, incredible Super Sport handling and intense power, all in a ready-to-run package.
 
Pull the cord to start the installed Zenoah G26M engine. The sound of intense horsepower is tempered only by the tuned pipe and your hand on the throttle.
 
Pull the trigger on the included JR XR3i transmitter; dual rudders cut through the waves for sharp turns at high speeds.
 
The clutch system allows you to start and tune the engine without the propeller engaging, for safer setup and operation. And the water pump design ensures that the engine will get plenty of cooling, even while the boat is standing still in the water. Stainless steel dual rudders have been specially designed to maximize the ShockWave’s cornering ability and handling. The Pro Boat propeller and adjustable surface drive system offer plenty of thrust for maximum speed.



Tech Notes

Back to Top ^
Flex Shaft Care:

Check the flex shaft after every run by rotating the propeller by hand (with the engine not running).  If you feel any binding, lubricate the flex shaft. The flex shaft should be cleaned by wiping with a rag and denatured alcohol then lubricated after 3-4 hours of operation and after sitting dormant for several weeks.

If you are running in saltwater you should clean and lubricate your flex shaft after every session.

Please refer to your owners manual for flex shaft removal.
